Humans control balance using different feedback loops involving the vestibular system, the
visual system, and proprioception. In this article, we focus on proprioception and explore the …

Maintaining balance standing upright is an active process that complements the stabilizing
properties of muscle stiffness with feedback control driven by independent sensory …

Standing balance relies on the integration of multiple sensory inputs to generate the motor
commands required to stand. Mechanical and sensory perturbations elicit compensatory …

To keep balance, information from different sensory systems is integrated to generate
corrective torques. Current literature suggests that this information is combined according to …

Background Maintaining upright posture is an unstable task that requires sophisticated
neuro-muscular control. Humans use foot–ground interaction forces, characterized by point …

In humans, to reduce deviations from a perfect upright position, information from various
sensory cues is combined and continuously weighted based on its reliability. Combining …

The human's upright standing is a complex control process that is not yet fully understood.
Postural control models can provide insights into the body's internal control processes of …

Postural stability in standing balance results from the mechanics of body dynamics as well
as active neural feedback control processes. Even when an animal or human has multiple …

Many components of the nervous and musculoskeletal systems act in concert to achieve the
stable, upright human posture. Controlled experiments accompanied by appropriate …

It has been proposed that sensory force/pressure cues are integrated within a positive
feedback mechanism, which accounts for the slow dynamics of human standing behavior …
